Best Answer

The city of Stalingrad (now Volgograd) was a large industrial complex with many factories and was situated on the Volga river which was an important logistical supply line carrying many strategic materials into the Russian interior and its capture would effectively shorten the war and was a strategic necessity to Russia's ability to continue the war . Its loss would remove whatever advantage Russia had to resist the German invasion .

The Germans lost the battle for Stalingrad 2/2/1943 .
